Last March, Millennial Esports opened an esports arena in downtown Las Vegas. Santa Ana's Esports Arena followed suit. Esports Arena announced their partnership with Allied Esports and MGM Resorts International and revealed plans to launch an esports venue by early 2018 at the Luxor Hotel and Casino on the Las Vegas strip.

Allied Esports hopes to make the new Las Vegas venue the flagship of its network of locations around the world; these locations include Santa Ana and Beijing, as well as a touring game truck in Europe. The company intends to launch more venues in the coming year in Shenzhen, China, and Oakland, California.

We have very ambitious expansion plans over the next two years, and when we realized that a location at Luxor was possible, we jumped at the opportunity to develop our flagship here. Just as Yankee Stadium, Madison Square Garden and Wembley Stadium are considered their sports’ most aspirational venues by players and fans alike, Esports Arena Las Vegas will be the iconic destination in esports and complement the city’s incredible appeal, attracting video gaming competitors and fans from around the world.
